    Sheldrick wildlife trust?

    Is it a good organization?

    I’m thinking about adopting an elephant for my girlfriend.

    It says you get monthly updates. Are those general updates about the organization or do you get updates on the specific animal you adopted?

    Edit: Thank you guys! I adopted a cute little boy for my girlfriend.❤️

    /r/BabyElephantGifs is celebrating 10 years on Reddit. Here's a look back at some of my favorites.

    Hey everybody. This month marks 10 years since I started /r/babyelephantgifs after seeing the reception to a post I made over in /r/gifs. I know this subreddit isn't as active as it once was. The world has changed, reddit has changed, life has happened, and many of us have moved on.

    That said, /r/babyelephantgifs is still here (numbering 1.3 million strong!) and it turns out that baby elephants are still remarkably cute. Here's a look back at some of my favorite gifs from the last 10 years.


    Cute as a button

    Baby elephant waves hello and continues on his merry way

    Hey there miss, you come here often?

    I can't believe you've done this

    Baby elephant wipes out while chasing birds

    Extracting a baby elephant from the earth

    Baby elephant meets the keeper who raised her orphan mom

    Too scared to cross the stream

    Baby elephants come in all shapes and sizes at the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust

    Preparing for a duel

    Baby elephants and kiddie pools: a match made in heaven


    And the gif that started it all: Can someone please stop the ride, I'd like to get off

    Cheers to another 10 years :)
